Ashton Sims will join Toronto at the end of the season

Warrington's out-of-contract prop Ashton Sims will play for the Toronto Wolfpack in 2018.

The 32-year-old Fiji international becomes the second recruit for the Canadian club, who have clinched promotion to the Kingstone Press Championship at the first attempt, following the capture of Widnes centre Tom Armstrong.

Sims has made 85 Super League appearances since joining the Wolves from North Queensland Cowboys ahead of the 2015 season and played in both the Challenge Cup final and Super League Grand Final in 2016.

"I am so honoured to have represented not only this club, but the people of Warrington and hope they know that I put every ounce of energy into this jersey doing the sport I love," said Sims.

Warrington Wolves maintained their 100% record in the Super 8s Qualifiers with a narrow 32-30 win over Leigh last weekend

"I wish I could have stayed on longer but it wasn't to be. As my youngest daughter Kaya was born here, I'll always have ties to this great town.

"I'm genuinely really looking forward to this journey with the Toronto Wolfpack but before that I really want to finish off these last two games the right way after a rough season."
